Mira's POV
December 19th, X781. Elfman, Lisanna, and I had been in Fairy Tail for while now. But that day, everything changed. I know that it isn't well known, but I had an older sister. Her name was Jessica and she was the most beautiful sister a family could hope for. She was the same age as Laxus, the Master's grandson. Those two always got along really well My sister was also the 2nd strongest mage in Fairy Tail, aside from Gildarts. She took on a lot of S-Class missions, but, that fateful day, she took on an SS-Class mission. A decade mission.
"Jessica, you can't go, who will take care of Lisanna and help her with her Take-over magic?!" I argued with Jessica.
"You're more than capable of teaching Lisanna and Elfman a full body take-over. I believe in you." Jessica stated as she kneels down to my eye level and puts her hand on my shoulder.
"But, we don't have the same type of take-over magic! You can do all three of ours!" I argued.
"Well, someone's gotta pay the rent and someone's gotta take care of those two." Jessica stated as she stands back up. She heads out the door. "Make sure neither of the two get killed alright?" She walks out the door.
"Jessica!" I ran out the door. "Don't get killed! You have to come back home!" Little did I know, that is would be the last time I saw my sister again.
It all happened right after Gildarts left for his century mission. A council member came in search of me, Lisanna, and Elfman. He came with the worst news I could have heard.
"What do you mean she's dead?" I stated. Lisanna and Elfman are crying there brains out, while stand there motionless.
"The quest your sister went on was to disassemble a murder guild known as Laughing Coffin. Unfortunately, everyone in the guild and the town was either found dead or in critical condition. We never found your sister's body, but we found this at the scene of the crime." The council member handed me Jessica's metal bracelet that coiled around her wrist. At the sight of that, I drop to my knees and start to scream and cry.
"Why Jessica?! You promised you wouldn't get killed and look what happened!" I yell. That night and many after I cried myself to sleep. I told the guild and everyone was in shock that Jessica wasn't coming back. I think that Laxus was one of the guild members who took it the hardest beside Elfman, Lisanna, and I. It didn't help when Lisanna died a few months later. I lost both of my sisters within a year of each other. I was a wreck for months maybe even over a year. It's now after the grand magic games and we're back in our old guild hall. I'm at the bar with Lucy, Levy, Lisanna, Juvia, and Erza serving them there regulars.
"Hey shouldn't Gildarts be back soon? He left a while ago for an S-Class mission with Cana a few days ago." Erza questions.
"They said that they'd be back in about 2 weeks." Lisanna states.
"Well they left on the 10th. What's today's date?" I ask.
"December 19th, X791." Lucy states. I feel my spine shiver and I cast my eyes down. I look at Lisanna and she looks at me.
"Would you excuse me for a sec, I need to check on something." I lie and I walk away from the group and to the infirmary. I open up a cabinet and I look at the calendar hanging in there. I hear the door open and I see the Master, Elfman, and Lisanna.
"Are you alright child?" Master questions me.
"What do you mean? I'm fine!" I fake a smile. "Mira-nee. I know that you know what today is." Lisanna states.
"If she didn't die, she would be back today." I state. I look down at my bracelet and I start to cry. I feel someone's arms wrap around me.
"Nee-chan, it's okay. We've gotten through in life this far. We can't stop now." Elfman states. I feel Lisanna wrap her arms around me and Elfman and the three of us start to cry. I don't know how long we were there for, but after a while, we walk out of the infirmary. The day passed by in a flash and it's already time to close up shop. Everyone is about to leave and I'm in the back of the guild putting back all of the beer mugs used that day. From the back, I hear a huge commotion. I run out of the back and I fall to my knees.
